Mitchie

I had been staying at Shane's, over the summer holidays, for just over a week and I still couldn't believe it. So much had happened in eight days.

Firstly, I felt sick that Steve had tried to rape me, and I still had nightmares about it. I really didn't intend on ever going back to my house.

I also realised I was in love with Shane Gray; pop-rockstar, lead singer of Connect 3. I knew plenty of girls would claim to be in love with him, but it wasn't the same. They were obsessed. He gave me butterflies, made me ramble and say the most ridiculous things, and he sent shots of electricity through my body with every touch.

To add to that, he was my best friend. And my first. My first ever friend, my first hug, my first kiss, the first person to make love to me... my first ever love. He was always there for me and I hoped that nothing would ever change. It would break my heart. He was the only one that gave me hope.

He gave me hope that maybe, just maybe, Steve would change and be an amazing step-dad. Maybe, I could be part of a fairytale family, with Shane always at my side. Please, God, let things change for the better.

"Mitch, are you okay?" Shane asked, turning his attention from the sparkling ocean to me.

"I'm fine." I replied, with a smile; it was genuine, as there was no where else I would rather be, than on the white, sandy, deserted beach with the boy I loved. I laid down, feeling the hot sand warm my body.

"Good." Shane smiled back, rolling on top of me, before kissing me passionately.

"Shane!" I shrieked, giggling with embarassment.

He laughed, looking around. "Mitch, this is my family's private beach.. there is no one else here!"

I frowned. "Are you sure your parents don't mind us being here?"

"Look, they are in Barbados, having a fourth honeymoon.. they won't know we were here.. besides, they are my parents, so it is my beach too."

I rolled my eyes. "Rich jerk."

"And don't you love it." He smirked, kissing me, so that we were making out on the beach.

Before we could get too carried away, he stood up, pulling me to my feet.

"Hey!" I frowned, wanting to lie down.

"But I'm hot." He groaned.

"Yeah, me too." I replied.

"I know." He smirked, making me hit him playfully. He pulled off his shirt, so he was only wearing his red swim-shorts, before taking off my favourite black sundress.

"Excuse me." I gasped, playfully. "Pervert!"

"Am I now?" He raised an eyebrow and picked me up, carrying me over his shoulder.

I kicked at his chest. "Hey! Put me down popstar!"

"I'm not a popstar." He replied, with a laugh, walking towards the sea.

"You're in a boyband! Of course, you're a popstar!"

I shrieked as I watched his feet walk into the water, further and further, so that the water was lapping around his waist.

"Shane! Stop! Put me down!" I cried out.

"If you insist." I could tell he was smirking but the tone of his voice.

He moved me, so that I was being held in his arms. Then he threw me forward, into the sea.

"Shit!" I shrieked, landing in the cold water. "It's bloody freezing!"

I pushed my soaked hair backwards, out of my face, and looked over at Shane, who was laughing away.

"That wasn't funny!" I said, swimming over to him. "I look like a drowned rat."

"Well you're my drowned rat." He smiled at me, still standing up, so that his top-half wasn't wet.

"I will get you back for that, mister!" I said, pouncing on him. He fell backwards, losing his balance, and landing in the water.

I stood up in the water, smiling, as his hair returned to the natural-curly-state.

"Hey!" He frowned, making me giggle.

"Maybe you shouldn't have dropped me in the water then." I stuck out my tongue.

"I'm sorry." He did his puppy dog eyes, as I squatted down in the water, to keep my shoulders warm. "Let me make it up to you?"

I raised an eyebrow as he swam over, his face tilting and leaning towards mine.

I shut my eyes, before letting out a scream. Shane laughed as I opened my eyes and took the disgusting, green seaweed off of my shoulder.

"Shane Gray, you are so evil!" I shrieked, throwing it back in the sea.

"That's why you love me." He smirked.

I sat down next to Shane, that evening, leaning over him, and grabbing my guitar.

"Gonna, sing me a song?" He asked, looking hopeful.

I shook my head. "Just gonna play around with some chords."

"Oh, come on, you can sing to me." He kissed my forehead.

"Only if you sing with me." I replied, looking up at him.

"Sure." He smiled, as I began to strum some chords.

Bang, bang, bang.

"What the-"

"Sounds like the door." Shane replied, looking confused. He stood up and walked over to the door.

"I know you're in there, Michelle!" It was Steve. Shouting and banging on Shane's door.

"Oh god." I sighed, looking down, already feeling the tears brimming in my eyes.

"Open up, or I'll call the police."

"I'm sorry, Mitch." Shane looked at me apologetically, before opening the door.

"How are you kidnap my daughter!" Steve hissed at Shane, barging past him.

"I did not kidnap her. She came here." He replied, calmly. "She will return home when she's ready."

"She will return home now !" Steve shouted, grabbing me by the arm.

"Get off me!" I shrieked.

"Michelle, you are coming home NOW!" He grabbed my bags and guitar and pulled me towards the door.

"Shane!" I screamed, trying to get away from Steve, but his grip tightened.

"Michelle, we are moving. It's already been decided. And you will never see this boy ever again!" He pushed me out of the door, as tears streamed down my cheeks.

"But, Steve, please." Shane pleaded, taking my free hand in his, but Steve pulled me away.

Steve's eyes filled with hatred, his teeth gritted. "Come near her ever again and I will kill you.. and that's a promise."
